The Story of Arthur Truluv

After Lucille prepares dinner and an elaborate dessert for herself, Frank, and Arthur, she gets a phone call from Frank telling her that he’s going to the hospital. He tells her not to worry, and that this has happened before. He predicts they will likely just give him more medicine. Lucille goes to the ER, where a Code Blue is called for the room Frank is in. Lucille sees Frank’s daughter, Sandy, in the waiting room, and when she introduces herself as Frank’s fiancée, Sandy denies knowing anything about her. Soon, Lucille learns that Frank has died.

Arthur meets Maddy’s father for coffee, where he learns that Maddy has run away from home. Steven explains that she calls every day but refuses to come home; he tells Arthur that he said some things to her he shouldn’t have, and he just wants Arthur to keep an eye out for her and let him know if she needs more money. He does not ask Arthur to try and get Maddy to come back home. Arthur sees Lucille haphazardly park her car that night; she explains that they gave her medicine to calm down and tells him that Frank had a heart attack and died.
